Does there exist an algorithm, for a given sequence to find a sub-sequence with minimum possible xor? Or at least an algorithm finding a subsequence of xor==0?

which asymptotic are you interesting about? For instance, one can use Meet-in-the-middle for second problem...
First thought: you can treat numbers like binary vectors and construct a matrix, where each row is a binary vector, corresponding to a particular number in sequence. Then you can perfrom Gaussian elimination modulo 2 on this matrix and if you have at least one all-zeroes row you can get xor == 0. If for each row R you also save indexes of rows interacted with row R during Gaussian elimination you can restore the corresponding subsequence.
